WCOOP Event #22: Kravchenko likes this structure



Omaha hi-lo split is one of those poker game where you'll find more action than in every other more or less poker and this final table was a fair example of this statement - chips were changing hands fast, players stacks were going up and down. For instance "PieOhMy" started with 816k , then was right down to about 100k, than as much as a chip lead of about 1.3 million and eventually out in 3d place.

I was worried a bit concerning the structure of the tournament - once I played mixed holdem event on the WSOP it looked to me that almost all of the action there has been in a limit element of the tournament - but here there has been a correct balance between limit and pot-limit game.

"BUCKIZ6" started this final table with the decent cheap lead and kept this position for the majority final table until his victory with a prize of $55,800. He was playing very aggressive. His style, combined with a significant portion of luck, was unbeatable this actual day.

On the overall hand, both players has good starting hands and no surprise that there has been a raise and reraise before the flop. "BUCKIZ6" had Kc-Kd-2s-3c and "jamie2000" has Ah-Js-5d-2c . Either one of them hit the flop-- Kh-8c-5h - so a few of the money went into the pot at the flop, the low didn't come and "BUCKIZ6" won the tournament.
